The science is sound and I've found several different gadgets that are available (the cleaner I linked to has been on the market for a few years now), but I've never seen one in the wild...... I was thinking about buying one a year or so back but the prices at that time put me off (they may be a bit more in reach now).

Pseudo, if you do pull the trigger on it please let us know what you think.

Take all safety precautions when working with potentially harmful chemicals. I don't know whether there's some confusion, but I'm not discussing sodium hypochlorite here, and reccommend that you check what I say.

Calcium hypochlorite is used in kitchens to disinfect surfaces and equipment, as an ingredient in bleaching powder, used for bleaching cotton and linen. It is also used in bathroom cleaners, household disinfectant sprays, moss and algae removers, and weed killers. It's also used in swimming pool cleaners.

Use only products that does not contain algaecides, fungicides, stabilizers or clarifiers for water purification. The label should list only calcium hypochlorite and inert ingredients. This chemical has a long shelf life, far more than chlorine solution.

Your explanation is solid, but just tighten it up a bit for clarity.

Always take safety precautions when handling chemicals. Calcium hypochlorite is used in kitchens for disinfecting, in bleaching powders, and for cleaning pools, bathrooms, and surfaces. Stick to products without algaecides, fungicides, or stabilizers if using it for water purification, I mean only calcium hypochlorite and inert ingredients should be listed

You don't as far as I know. I would buy calcium hypochlorite for water treatment.

The original post was producing Sodium Hypochlorite by the electrolysis of Sodium Chloride.
